I am new to ubuntu. During installation of Ubuntu 15.04 vivid vervet , I created partitions for ubuntu filesystem as Ext2 using windows partitioning tool.I created partitions for Boot loader information and ubuntu file system. After ubuntu installation, ubuntu partitions are showing in windows as local disks ,but not readable. When I tried to open it, a message that the partition is corrupted was shown and asked to format the disk. I dont want access for ubuntu file from windows.

  • What is the cause of this ?
  • How can I hide this ubuntu partition in windows ?

The reason it does not work is that windows does not know how to read ext2 filesystems.

I am not aware of a method to block windows from seeing the partitions, Does it assign the ext2 partition a drive letter?
